(Doug's email address is dead -- Doug, are you out there?) That is why the initial release of this FAQ was considered version 2.00. Due to high demand for information on the Terminator films, the FAQ has been resurrected. Contributions/discussion are welcome! The preferred forum for discussion is news:rec.arts.sf.movies In the section on time travel, there are probably no absolute right or wrong answers -- except as far as real-world physics can be applied to the virtual world of the Terminator films. I am open to alternate answers to particular questions, as long as they meet one of two criteria: 1) I find them reasonable, or 2) after discussion of the topic in a Usenet newsgroup, consensus is that the explanation is reasonable. This way I avoid crackpot ideas ;-) If you want to contribute something and start out by writing, "I know someone who knows this guy who met JC's gardener once, and *she* says that JC says that..." Well, I probably won't read much further than that. If you cite a reference to info that you provide, your credibility will be that much higher. (I'm not anally retentive. It's just that this is supposed to be an information file, not a *mis*information file. ;-) If you want to make sure I get your input (questions *or* answers), send email to my address at the top of this FAQList. Sorry, but I can't answer *everyone*'s questions. Plug1: I am also the FAQ-keeper for the MPC game Star Wars: Dark Forces! Plug2: Anyone need a perceptual psychologist who is also interested in human factors and human/computer interfaces? 0.1 World-Wide Web access to this FAQ ------------------------------------- Those with World-Wide Web (WWW) access (e.g., via browsers such as Mosaic, NetScape, or Lynx) may access this FAQ.

Include author, title of story, [title of book or collection], and a *very* brief synopsis. 1.0 What are the different movie versions? ========================================== 1.1 _The Terminator_ -------------------- Producer: Gale Anne Hurd Cinematography: Adam Greenberg Production design: George Costello Editing: Mark Goldblatt Written by: Gale Anne Hurd and James Cameron Director: James Cameron Released 1984. As far as I know, there is only one cut of T1. It is available on VHS videocassette and on LD. 1.2 _Terminator 2: Judgment Day_ -------------------------------- Producer: James Cameron Cinematography: Adam Greenberg Production design: Joseph Nemec III Editing: Conrad Buff IV, Mark Goldblatt, and Richard A. Harris Written by: James Cameron and William Wisher Director: James Cameron Released 1991. The original, theatrical-release cut of T2 is available on VHS videocassette and LD. There are also special editions on VHS video and LD that restore footage edited out prior to release. The T2 Special Edition LD has several cut scenes, including the alternate ending. Also called the 'extended version,' it comes in two packages: one with movie only, the other also includes supplements on the making of the movie. The T2 SE VHS boxed set contains: 1) Terminator 2: Judgment Day: *not* letterboxed, with additional footage. Note: does *not* include alternate ending. 152 minutes. 2) Special Edition Supplement: explains the editing choices made; shows the scenes that were cut out; includes trailers. 40 minutes. There is now also a letterboxed VHS version of the boxed set. The Terminator Collection SE LD boxed set (with the hologram on the front) contains: 1) The Terminator: letterboxed with no additional footage. 108 minutes. 2) Terminator 2: Judgment Day: Letterboxed with no additional footage; it is as it appears in theaters. 139 minutes. 3) A tape with two documentaries: _The Making of The Terminator_ and _The Making of Terminator 2: Judgment Day_. (Were these shown on the US pay channel Showtime?) This also has all of the trailers for both movies (one for T1 and three for T2). 57 minutes. 4) A limited-edition 24-page book containing information/trivia about the making of the Terminator films as well as storyboards, drawings and other photographs. There is now a VHS letterbox version of the SE LD of T2. It was put together jointly through Pioneer, Showtime Entertainment, Live Home Video, Lightstorm Entertainment, and CarolCo. This version is different from the double pack floating around for $20. This one comes in a 1'x1'x1" black box with SCHWARZENEGGER and TERMINATOR 2: JUDGMENT DAY in red foil letters and costs about $30. A gold stamp on the outside of the box reads "SPECIAL EXPANDED EDITION from the Pioneer Laserdisc. Letterbox Version." The box contains two cassettes: 1) The first cassette is a special edition letterbox version with all but two scenes added. Running time is "approx. 152 mins." The film is not rated. 2) The second cassette is called T2: MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE. It contains a discussion of the deleted scenes with all the actors and Cameron. The alternate ending is shown here as well but Cameron is speaking over most of it. Following this 20 minute film are the omitted scenes with alternate ending with no Cameron voice-over, the T1000 searching young John Connor's bedroom, three trailers from the movie, and the trailer for the release of the special edition of the laserdisc. Running time for this cassette is "approx. 40 mins." Not rated. 1.2.1 Why were there scenes cut out of T2? ------------------------------------------ Certain scenes were edited out of T2. These include a scene of Sarah opening up the Terminator's head and adjusting the CPU, Sarah's dream sequence with Kyle Reese, and the legendary extended ending (see section 1.2.3 for more). JC was interviewed for the TV show _Secrets Revealed_, hosted by William Devane (because of the difficulty in obtaining copies of the show, JC's responses are reproduced verbatim): "Well, 'final cut' really doesn't change anything. You still have to do what's best for the film -- and a lot of people have opinions about what's best for the film. And, as a responsible filmmaker, you have to listen to them. "In the opening of the film, we see a playground after a nuclear war, where all the playground equipment has been burned and blackened. And then the ending was to show the 'alternate future' that came about as a result of the efforts of Sarah and John. And then when we put the movie together, and sat and watched it, it just felt a little too...'sweet'. It's essentially the movie of the script. But no movie is ever the movie of the script -- the script is what you start with when you start the voyage, and when you end the voyage, you may be somewhere else. "So we took the ending off and we went to the dark road, kind of going into darkness -- the uncertain future...and that seemed to work better. "We did screen it once, with the happier ending -- because we had already raised the question to ourselves: 'Is this *really* the right thing?' And the audience seemed to concur. So we all looked at each other and went, 'Aha! See? Eh?' So we very quickly whipped together the alternate, which I'd already had in mind. "Sometimes, in that pressure-cooker of finishing the picture, the most instinctive responses are the best. And that's really what happened there; it was just instinct." ·_ 1.2.2 What is the missing ending? --------------------------------- The alternate ending is available with the SE version of T2. It is *not* edited into the film, but is shown in a separate segment. Again, from the TV show _Secrets Revealed_, here is a transcript of the alternate ending: [After the T-800 sinks into the molten steel, Sarah holds John and looks into the camera. NOTE: This shot is common to both versions. What follows was cut from the theatrical release.] [Fade to shot of the sun. Begin voiceover as the camera pans down. It is Washington, DC; the capitol is in the background, as are several futuristic buildings. Pan down to long shot of a park with a fountain and a playground.] Sarah: "August 29th, 1997 came and went. Nothing much happened. Michael Jackson turned *forty*. There was *no* 'judgment day'." [Cut to medium shot of a recreational area around the fountain. Pan down and across children in the playground to a well-dressed older woman speaking the narration into a small recording device.] Sarah: "People went to work as they always do. Laughed. Complained. Watched TV. Made love. I wanted to run through the street yelling, to grab them all and say, 'Every day from this day on is a *gift*. Use it well.' Instead, I got drunk. That was thirty years ago. But the dark future which never came still exists for me. And it always will -- like the traces of a dream." [Cut to a shot of an adult John Connor, pushing a little girl on a swing in the playground.] Sarah: "John fights the war differently than it was foretold. Here, on the battlefield of the Senate, his weapons are common sense --" [Cut to a closeup of Sarah, watching John and the little girl] Sarah: "--and hope." [Cut to a shot of the little girl running.] Girl: "Tie me, gramma! Tie me!" [Cut to a medium shot of the girl climbing up onto the bench beside Sarah, who ties her granddaughters' shoe. Cut to a closeup of the little girl as she looks up at Sarah and giggles. Cut to a medium shot of the two.] Sarah: "How's that?" [Cut to a shot of the girl] Girl: "Thank you, gramma." [Cut to a shot of the two; Sarah leans down and gives the girl a kiss. The girl runs back to the playground. Cut to a shot of the girl running into John's arms. The two embrace, then John helps her onto a slide.] Sarah: "The luxury of hope was given to me by the Terminator. Because if a machine can learn the value of human life--" [Cut to a shot of Sarah, smiling, watching the children.] Sarah: "--maybe we can, too." [Fade to black.] 1.2.3 What are the other scenes added to T2? -------------------------------------------- Here's a list of the differences between the theatrical release and the T2SE. **** CAUTION: Major spoilers for the Special Edition ahead **** 1.2.3.1 Scene 1: Pescadero -------------------------- [In hallway of Pescadero Mental Institution. Dr. Silberman has just finished showing Sarah Connor to some other doctors.] Silberman: "Douglas, I don't like to see the patients disrupting their rooms like this. See that she takes her Thorazine, would you?" Douglas: "Sure, Doctor Silberman. I'll take care of it." :Theatrical release: [Cut to T-1000 patrol car pulling up at John's foster parents' home.] :Special Edition: [Cut to Silberman walking away. Douglas and black partner enter Connor's room.] Douglas: "Time to take your medicine, Connor." Sarah: "You take it." Douglas: "Now you know you've got to be good 'cause you're up for review this afternoon." Sarah: "I'm not taking it, Dougie. I don't want any trouble." Douglas: "Ain't no trouble--" [Douglas hits Sarah in the abdomen with stick. Sarah hits the floor, face down. Douglas kicks Sarah in the abdomen against the wall. Partner charges up electric zapper.] Douglas: "Yeah, zap her." [Partner zaps Sarah in the back. Sarah cries out.] Douglas: "Last call, sugar." [Douglas opens Sarah's mouth and pinches shut her nose until she swallows.] Douglas: "Sweet dreams." [Cut to T-1000 in the patrol car.] Total time of added scene: 1:00 1.2.3.2 Scene 2: Dream Sequence ------------------------------- [John Connor relating to friend how his mom is a loser.

Cut to Terminator pulling up on his bike. :Theatrical Release: [Cut to Dr. Silberman and Sarah watching an old videotape of Sarah describing a recurring dream of nuclear Judgement Day.] :Special Edition: [Cut to Sarah sitting on her *horizontal* bed in her cell.] Kyle: "Sarah. Sarah, wake up." Sarah: "Kyle. You're dead." Kyle: "Where's our son, Sarah?" Sarah: "They took him away from me." Kyle: "He's the target now." Sarah: "I know." Kyle: "He's all alone. You have to protect him." Sarah: "I know. You tell me how I'm supposed to do that. He doesn't even believe me any more. I've lost him." Kyle: "You're strong, Sarah. Stronger than you ever though you could be. On your feet, soldier." [They hug and kiss.] Kyle: "I love you, Sarah. I always will." Sarah: "I need you." Kyle: "I'll always be with you. Remember the message. 'The future is not set. There is no fate but what we make for ourselves.' " [Hugs and kisses. Cut to Kyle at doorway.] Sarah: "Stay with me." Kyle: "There's not much time left in the world, Sarah." [Kyle starts walking away] Sarah: "Kyle, Don't go." [Sarah runs down hallway after Kyle. Turns corner, runs down corridor, and goes through double doors. She appears in the playground. She screams to the children and grabs the fence. There's a bright flash. Cut to Sarah in real room, with upturned bed.] [Cut to videotape of Sarah describing her recurring dream of Judgment day.] Total time of added scenes: 3:21 1.2.3.3 Scene 3: Max -------------------- [In the alley at the phoone booth, after Terminator hangs up on the T-1000.] John: "Well, why doesn't it just become a bomb or something to get me?" Terminator: "It can't form complex machines. Guns and explosives have chemicals, moving parts. It doesn't work that way. But it can form solid metal shapes." John: "Like what?" Terminator: "Knives and stabbing weapons." :Theatrical Release: [Cut to officers showing Sarah pictures taken of Terminator at mall.] :Special Edition: [Cut to T-1000 leaving John's foster parents' home.

Sarah is pulling slugs out of Terminator's back.] John: "Can you learn stuff that you haven't been programmed with, so you can be, you know, more human and not such a dork all the time?" :Theatrical Release: Terminator: "My CPU is a neural net processor. A learning computer. The more contact I have with humans, the more I learn." :Special Edition: Terminator: "My CPU is a neural net processor. A learning computer. But Skynet presets the switch to read only when we're sent out alone." Sarah: "Doesn't want you to do too much thinking, huh?" Terminator: "No." John: "Can we reset the switch?" [Cut to Sarah pulling back Terminator's scalp.] Terminator: "Rotate the two locking cylinders counterclockwise. Do it." [Sarah unscrews plate from Terminator's head.] Terminator: "Now open the port cover. Pull to break the seal. Good. Now remove the shock damping assembly. You can now access the CPU. Do you see it?" Sarah: "Yes." [Terminator view: flashing message: PORT OPEN] Terminator: "Hold the CPU by its base tab and pull." [Terminator turns off. John lifts Terminator's arm. It stays in place. Terminator's catatonic. Sarah sets CPU onto end of table. Picks up a hammer, and begins to swing] John: "No!" [John covers chip with his hand.] Sarah: "Get out of my way, John." John: "Don't kill him." Sarah: "*It*, John. Not *him*. *It*." John: "Okay, *it*. But we need *it*." Sarah: "Listen to me. Listen. We are better off on our own." John: "But he's the only proof we have of the future, and the war, and all that." Sarah: "Maybe. I don't trust it." John: "But he's my friend, alright?" Sarah: "You don't know what it's like to try to kill one of these things. And if something goes wrong, this might be our last chance. So move..." John: "Look, mom. If I'm ever supposed to be such a great military leader, maybe you should start listening to my leadership ideas once in a while. Because if my own mother won't, how do you expect anyone else to?" [John removes hand from the chip. Sarah swings hammer and hits next to chip] Sarah: "Alright. Play it your way." [She throws down hammer. John puts chip back into Terminator.] [Terminator view: System interrupt. Diagnostic] Terminator: "Was there a problem?" John: "No problem. None whatsoever."

Sarah: "Get some food." John: "Geez. No sense of humor." John [To Terminator]: "And that's another thing. You can lighten up a bit yourself. This severe routine is getting old, okay? I mean, you're acting like such a geek. *Smile* once in a while." Terminator: "Smile?" John: "Yeah. You know, smile. Watch." [John approaches pay window.] John: "Hi. Nice place you got here. How's business?" Woman: "Gimme a break." John: "OK. Bad example... See that guy over there [points to guy on phone]? That's a smile." [Terminator view: Terminator analyzes smile.

[Cut to Sarah chewing on burger.] Total time of added scenes: 1:17 1.2.3.6 Scene 6: Dyson ---------------------- [Terminator is telling Sarah about who developed the Skynet technology.] Sarah: "I want to know everything.

You promised to take the kids to Raging Waters today." Miles: "I can't. I'm on a roll. Baby, this is going to blow them all away. It's a neural net processor." Tarissa: "I know, I know. You told me. It's a neural net procesoor. It thinks and learns like we do. It's superconducting at room temperature. Other computers are just pocket calculators by comparison. Yeah, but why is that so god-damn important, Miles? I really need to know, 'cause sometimes I feel like I'm going crazy here." Miles: "Baby, I'm this close. Come here. [Points to large scale model reproduction of Terminator chip] Imagine a jet airliner with a pilot that never gets tired., never makes mistakes, never shows up to work with a hangover. Meet the pilot." Tarissa: "Why did we get married, Miles? Why did we have these children? You don't need us. Your heart and mind are here. But it doesn't love as we do." Miles: "I'm sorry, really." Tarissa: "How about spending some time with your other babies?" Miles [to his *two* children, one girl, one boy]: "Hey, raging waters..." Kids: "Yea!"

Riding around in helicoptors, learning how to blow shit up." :Special Edition: Sarah: "Enrique, it's dangerous for you here. You get out tonight too, okay?" Enrique: "Sure. Just drop by any time and totally fuck up my life, huh?" [Sarah and Enrique clasp hands. Cut to John and Terminator messing around with weapons.] John: "See, I grew up in places like this. So I just thought that's how people lived. Riding around in helicoptors, learning how to blow shit up. But then when my mom got busted, I got put into a regular school. All the other kids were into Nintendo..." John: "Are you ever afraid?" Terminator: "No." John: "Not even of dying?" Terminator: "No." John: "You don't feel any emotion about it one way or another?" Terminator: "I have to stay functional until the mission is complete. Then it doesn't matter." John: "Yeah. I have to stay functional too. 'I'm too important.'"

[Terminator hands Miles the axe]. Miles: "I worked a lot of years on this thing." [Smashes chip. Cut to police cars pulling up at Cyberdyne.] Total time of added scenes: 0:30 1.2.3.10 Scene 10: T-1000 ------------------------- [After the T-1000 is shattered by the Terminator, we see that it's beginning to lose control of its morphing. Its hand takes on black and yellow stripes when it grabs a black and yellow striped railing, and its feet squish and morph into the steel floor pattern on each step. When it morphs into Sarah Connor, John looks down and sees that the T-1000/Connor's feet have melded into the steel floor right before the real Connor begins blasting away at it.] 1.2.4 Other cut scenes ---------------------- There were two long scenes that didn't even make it into the Special Edition. They were appended to the supplemental tape. One is the alternate ending "Future Coda" (see section 1.2.2), the other follows: Scene A: [T-1000 searches John's room, touching everything gently with his fingertips. He touches a Public Enemy poster, rips it off the wall and finds a box with "Letters from Mom" written on it. It goes through a bunch of photos in the box.] Total time: 1:25 Also, a snippet of the script that was shown in the accompanying video revealed that the Terminator was supposed to walk up next to Sarah in the dream sequence when the Nuclear Bomb goes off. Its skin gets burned off while Sarah watches and gets fried.... In the accompanying video, Cameron explains that the scene with the T- 1000 searching the room was a "classic example of underestimating the audience." He thought it wasn't necessary to have another scene explaining that the T- 1000 'molecularly samples' everything it touches. Cameron also explained why the Future Coda never made it: "But there was a sense that, why tie it up with a bow? If the future *is* changeable, then the battle is something that has to be fought continuously. And you an't do it with a single stroke. That it's the dualism, the dynamic between good and eval that's eternal." 2.0 Are the Original Motion Picture Soundtracks available? ========================================================== 2.1 The Terminator ------------------ Original soundtrack. Music composed, performed, and produced by Brad Fiedel (6 tracks). There are 5 additional rock songs from the film included. Total playing time is 35:39. DCC Compact Classics, DZS-058. A new soundtrack produced by Ford Thaxton has recently been released by Edel. It features more of Brad Fiedel's original score. 2.2 _Terminator 2: Judgement Day_ --------------------------------- Original motion picture soundtrack. Music composed and produced by Brad Fiedel. CD contains 20 tracks (all orchestral); total playing time is 53:45. Varese Sarabande, VSD-5335. 2.2.1 What songs in the movie are not on the T2 soundtrack? ----------------------------------------------------------- There are three songs. One is "Guitars, Cadillacs" written and performed by Dwight Yoakam (played in the bar where the T-800 gets his clothes). Another is "Bad to the Bone" written by George Thorogood, performed by George Thorogood and the Destroyers (played when the T-800 walks out of the bar). And finally, "You Could be Mine" written by Izzy Stradlin and W. Axl Rose, performed by Guns 'N' Roses. The latter song was written especially for T2; the former two were not. "You Could Be Mine" appears on "Use Your Illusion II" (Geffen GEFD- 24420). "Bad To the Bone" lives on the album "Bad To The Bone" (Cat number unknown) and also the compilation "The George Thorogood Collection" (EMI CDP 7924152) 3.0 What 'Terminator' novels and comics are there? ================================================== The comic-book license to T1 has been held by two companies at different times: first by Now Comics, and later by Dark Horse Comics. These comics expanded on the canon presented in the T1 movie *only*, not explicitly incorporating the events of T2. Currently, this license is apparently with another publisher. The license to T2 was obtained by Marvel Comics, which only produced an adaptation of the T2 movie. The current status of this license is unknown. [Warning!

This edition includes the three cardstock standees which were published in the three issues of the 4-issue series. 3.4 Marvel Comics ----------------- _Terminator 2: Judgment Day_, issues #1-3. Script adapted by Gregory Wright, art by Klaus Janson. As with any adaptation, lots of things have been cut out. This series is notable for its inclusion of scenes that were removed from the film, like Sarah adjusting the chip in the Terminator's head. Art is mediocre; this series is only for die-hard, completist fans -- like me! ;-) Reprinted in a squarebound, b&w magazine. 4.0 What 'Terminator' computer/video games are there? ===================================================== 4.1 The Terminator (MS-DOS) --------------------------- First-person perspective walking/driving game. You may play the T-800 or Reese. Your objective (kill Sarah/kill T-800) depends on which character you choose to play. Average graphics and mediocre gameplay. 4.2 T2 Pinball -------------- From MTM 'Matt the Mentat' Walsh : I worked at Williams/Bally/Midway - the official licensee of T2 - when the games were being developed. T2 Pinball Trivia: * note that the T1000 only appears in one corner of the game's playfield artwork, and he appears as the normal, Mr. Patrick mode. This is not because Williams didn't know the script (we got to read it) it was because the game was supposed to come out before the movie and they insisted we did not give away the surprise that Arnold was the good terminator and there was a liquid guy who was the bad one. * There is a special game rom chip for the Pinball. If you put it in, an interesting thing happens if you have the game set for free play. If you get into the Database mode, the game lists 10 'Possible Choices' of things you receive, from 'Extra Ball' to '10,000 pts' to 'ZILCH'. This is supposed to be just like the scene in T1 where Arnold picks from 'possible responses' in the hotel. If you have the special chip, instead of 'Zilch' the game has 'F*** You A** Hole' and if chosen the words get big on the screen and Arnold says the phrase out loud. Only a handful of collectors got these chips and have sworn to never release these to general game operators. 4.3 T2 Handheld --------------- The T2 handheld LCD 'video game' by Acclaim has "arcade-style continue mode, roll-over scoring and dual channel super-sound FX as you take on the T- 1000 at the steel mill as Earth's fate hangs in the balance" [from the T2 Official Movie Magazine] 4.4 Terminator 2: Judgment Day Chess Wars (PC CD-ROM) ----------------------------------------------------- "Combine the excellence of the Grandmaster Chess game engine with the high-action science fiction drama of the Terminator, and you get T2 Chess Wars. While the animation is lacking in some places, the overall quality of the game's engine makes up for any shortcomings." [from _CD-ROM Entertainment_] 4.5 T2 (MS-DOS) --------------- Third-person platform/action game with six levels (you play Arnie): 1) Initial fight (side view): T800 and T1000 have a hand-to-hand fight. You have 3 moves at your command (high kick, low kick, and punch). Takes place in the galleria. 2) Motorbike chase (top view): You're on the motorcycle and the T1000 is chasing you in the semi through an obstacle course. You have to avoid junk that's lying on the road and ensure that you keep your speed up so that the semi doesn't hit you. 3) T2 arm puzzle: Slider puzzle. You have to "fix" the Terminator's forearm by sliding the squares around to unscramble the picture. 4) Helicopter chase: Same as the motorbike chase except you're in a truck and the T1000 is in a helicopter. 5) T2 face puzzle: Same as the arm puzzle, except with the Terminator's face 6) Final battle: Same as the first level except it's in the steel factory. At the end of each level is a fancy little animation from the movie. 4.6 T2: The Arcade Game (MS-DOS) -------------------------------- First-person action game, based on the arcade game of T2. Very nice graphics, but has received only poor reviews. 4.7 The Terminator 2029 (MS-DOS) -------------------------------- Popular split-screen (first-person combat window/third-person overhead navigation window) action game. You play an armoured member of the human resistance. You must complete 19 different missions. Nice graphics, but gameplay is difficult. 4.7.1 The Terminator 2029: Operation Scour (MS-DOS) --------------------------------------------------- Add-on mission disk for T2029. More of the same; 12 new missions. 4.8 Terminator: Rampage (MS-DOS) -------------------------------- First-person combat game, a la DOOM! Very nice graphics and good gameplay. Apparently plagued by speed problems, however. 4.9 Terminator 2: The Arcade Game (Arcade) ------------------------------------------ From Williams/Midway/Sente. One or two players wield guns and play "converted" T-800s who shoot through a variety of scenes from the movie -- fight with the humans against the Terminators, raid Skynet's time-travelling complex, shoot the cops while the Connors blow up Cyberdyne, freeze the T-1000, and blow it away. Very hard, but lovely graphics and sound. 4.10 The Terminator (most console systems) ------------------------------------------ Reviewed by Trevor Williams : The Terminator is a shoot-'em-up platform game for NES, Super Nintendo, Sega Game Gear, Sega Master System, and Sega Megadrive (Genesis). The game follows the movie closely, but adds original levels. (The first level, for instance, has Kyle Reese infiltrating the Terminators' time machine base). The graphics are horrible, even on Super Nintendo. Sometimes flicker occurs, slowing the game to a snail's pace. The Nintendo graphics resemble that of a Commodore 64, while the SNES graphics look like that of a subpar Nintendo game. The sound is okay, but on the Sega Master System, it is atrocious. This game is very hard. Most of the time, you have to attack the Terminator and then run for it. Then attack and run. Attack and run. Very repetitive. And you have a very limited supply of health. At least on the Game Gear version, one hit means you're dead. The game is frustrating. With drab graphics and the repetitiousness, it can become a bore quickly. Graphics: 61% Sound: 72% Gameplay: 45% Longevity: 10% Overall: 50% (I am being nice) 4.11 Terminator 2: The Arcade Game (SNES/Genesis) ------------------------------------------------- Flying Edge's (a.k.a. Acclaim's) adaptation of the arcade machine. Support for the Menacer video-game gun (Genesis) and the Super Scope (Super Nintendo "gun") are provided. Both are good conversions, though the Nintendo game has been toned down a bit to avoid being too offensive to sensitive parents. 4.12 Robocop vs. the Terminator (SNES/Genesis) ·_ ---------------------------------------------- Acclaim(?)'s loose adaptation of the Dark Horse limited series (see section 3.2.7). In both games, you play Robocop, who shoots through a motley crew of punks and endoskeletons in the near future, then travels to the Terminator's future for more fighting with Skynet's forces. The SNES and Genesis versions differ somewhat in graphics, sound, and level, with only the basic idea the same between them. Rather generic side-scrolling platform action, though with good sound and graphics. 5.0 What are the filmographies of the some of the people involved with T2? ======================================================================== == 5.1 James Cameron ----------------- As a director: True Lies (1994), also written.

Thus, most of T2 takes place in the summer of 1995. 6.1.1 Are there mathematical errors in the script? -------------------------------------------------- Some details first: T2 begins in 2029; Skynet becomes self-aware at 2:14am EDT August 29, 1997 (trivia: this is a Friday). - Sarah is 29 in T2, which would make her 18 in T1. Sarah was 19 according to the book for T1, so this is plausible. - The T-800 says that in three years, Skynet starts the war. T2 takes place in 1995, so 1995 + 3 = 1998, not 1997. From February, 1995 to August, 1997 is more than two years, so the T-800 might have just rounded it to three years. - From Paul Duncanson : In T1 Reese accosts a police officer and demands to know the date. "Twelve. May. Thursday." Wrong! It is established three times that T1 happens in 1984 (title after credits in T1; Sarah's timecard in T1 read "Pay period ending 5/19/84"; and John's date of birth (2/28/1985) confirm he was conceived around May 1984). Problem is that May 12, 1984 was a Saturday. The problem probably occurred because the screenplay was written in 1983 when May 12 did fall on a Thursday. 6.2 Why did it take the T-1000 so long to show up at John's house in Reseda? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- The T-1000 was transported to the Sixth Street Bridge in downtown LA at night and had access to a police vehicle and John Connor's address. Yet he only arrived at John's house in Reseda *after* the T-800 did! It seems like at least 4-6 hours between the T-1000 arriving and then getting to John's house. The greater LA area is big, but not that big. *** Maybe the novelization has an explanation...? 6.3 Why didn't the security guard at Pescadero State Hospital not notice the T-1000 on the floor? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- It is very possible that the T-1000 made itself thin enough to avoid being noticed. The T-1000 doesn't necessarily need to keep a consistent thickness while it is on the floor. 6.4 Does the T-1000 have to touch the object it takes the form of? ------------------------------------------------------------------ The T-800 told John that the T-1000 could replicate "anything it samples by physical contact". It appears that the T-1000 can use a medium to do this without actually touching the victim's skin. In scene where the T-1000 mimicked the guard at the coffee machine, the only contact was when the guard walked on the floor, where the medium was the soles of the shoes the guard was wearing. JC, in the T2 SE supplements, explains that the T-1000 ihas the ability to sample things that it touches at a "fantastic level." In a scene cut from the theatrical release, the T-1000, after killing John's foster parents, searches for clues to John's whereabouts. It touches the walls, and immediately determines that there is a cache (of tapes and letters from Sarah, as it turns out) behind a poster in John's room. (See section 1.2.3.) 6.5 Why did the T-1000 change back to the policeman at Pescadero State Hospital? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- It may be that it takes more energy to mimic an object than to just keep the default form. When the T-1000 was transported to 1995, it had a default humanoid form, and that is the one it kept throughout the movie. It did *not* copy the form the unfortunate officer Austin who discovered it -- it only copied the uniform, apparently. The T2 Annotated Screenplay (see section 10.1) notes that being a policeman gives the T-1000 a large degree of leeway, thus is a default; also, maintaining the same form allows the audience to recognize the character. 6.6 Why did the orderly in Pescadero State Hospital lick Sarah's face? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- According to JC, this situation was presented to "dig a deeper hole that Sarah had to climb out of". A cut scene (see section 1.2.3) showed Dougie (the licker) and another orderly hitting Sarah before giving her drugs. Thus, Sarah is justified in beating Dougie later on. Any sexual abuse is only weakly implied. 6.7 If dogs are used to identify Terminators, why doesn't the dog at the desert hideout bark at the Terminator? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ (Why is this *the* most popular point of discussion in this *entire* FAQ!?) The dog at the desert hideout also did not bark at Sarah or John; maybe the dog didn't bark at "Uncle Bob" because it knew Sarah and John. Three other possibilities have been discussed: 1) Dogs may have to be "trained" to sniff out Terminators. This implies that John's dog Max was just barking for the hell of it, when the T-1000 kills John's foster parents. 2) Not all dogs bark at Terminators. 3) JC intentionally neglected to have the dog bark, to show that the Terminator was becoming more human. Finally, to end the ceaseless discussion on this question: 4) It's a continuity glitch. Live with it ;-) 6.8 Why does Sarah carve the words "NO FATE"? --------------------------------------------- Sarah realizes that the future is not predetermined; she can change the future. (Remember Reese's words to her: "The future is not set. There is no fate but what we make for ourselves.") The words show Sarah's rejection of determinism; the future is not 'carved in stone'. The fact that the words are *carved* is ironic. 6.9 What gun does Sarah use when she attempts to kill Dyson? ------------------------------------------------------------ The sound suppresser on the guns is a Sionics model, first designed in the 1960s, and used by the US on M-16s in Vietnam. The gun itself was a CAR 15 (aka XM177L2), which looks similar to an M16A2 carbine. 6.10 Why doesn't Sarah kill Dyson? ---------------------------------- When faced with killing someone, Sarah cannot do it. This scene is meant to show that she is *not* like the Terminators. She has something they don't have: feelings. These feelings will not let her kill even one person. Note that it is not necessary that Dyson dies -- there are other ways to alter the future. 6.11 When the T-1000 goes to Dyson's home, what police radio is it listening to? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- Comments during this scene on the extended LD indicate that whereas the T-1000 'became' the uniform of the policeman, it took the radio (and gun) so it could monitor police activity. The T-1000 is *not* listening to the radio on the motorcycle. 6.12 Why didn't the T-1000 try to imitate Dyson and develop Skynet itself? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- - The T-1000 had one objective: to kill John Connor, not to preserve its own future. 6.13 When the Terminator was firing the big machine gun in the Cyberdyne lab, is the bullet belt moving or not? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ From : It appeared that the weapon Arnold had in T2 was a General Electric minigun, M-134/GAU-2b. It fires a 7.62 mm round from 6 rotating barrels at peak cyclic rates of up to 6,000 rpm. Barrel rotation is powered by an electric motor. The "ammo chain" is actually an enclosed feeder. The bullets are inside of this feeder. That is why it appears to not move. If you look closely, you'll see a steady stream of spent cartridges dropping out of the bottom of the weapon. 6.14 Does the T-1000 have a third arm when it is flying the helicopter and shooting its weapon at the same time? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Yes, and even a fourth arm in some scenes, if you look carefully. Although the T-1000 is supposed to "mimic" shapes it comes in contact with, this seems to be an acceptable modification of its shape. Note that in the fight scene at the end of T2, the T-1000 is clearly capable of modifying its humanoid appearance -- not to mention the many other myriad (partial) transformations. 6.15 What was that "ripple" that went through the T-1000 after it fought the T-800 and left him behind? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- The liquid nitrogen damaged the T-1000 (see the August, 1991 issue of _Cinefex_ -- referenced in section 10.1). 6.16 Why did the T-1000 take the shape of Sarah instead of the T-800 after it drove the spike through his back? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- - The T-1000 could have taken either shape; since the T-1000 took the shape of the guard at Pescadero, it would seem that the T-1000 could have taken the T-800's shape as well, or at least come close to resembling him. It may have thought it would have had a better chance of getting close to John if it took the shape of his mother. Don't forget that the T-1000 had no information on how John's relationship was progressing with the T-800, so it would assume that Sarah would have been a better choice. The Special Edition indicates that this behaviour resulted from the damage experienced by the T-1000 after being frozen and shattered. 6.17 Why did the T-1000 try to get Sarah to call to John? --------------------------------------------------------- Again, discussion has centred on several possible explanations. In order of plausibility: 1) The theory from the novelization is that the liquid nitrogen temporarily damaged its vocals. 2) Another possible reason is that the T-1000 had not heard Sarah speak to obtain a sufficiently suitable sample; therefore, he could not mimic her voice. 3) Some have suggested that the T-1000 possesses some malevolence. For example, it wags its finger in the steel mill after Sarah blows a hole through its head. Thus, it may delight in torturing Sarah both physically (spike through the shoulder) and emotionally (helping her destroy her son). 4) It may be that the T-1000 realized that mimicry was unsuccessful on John before (when it imitated Janelle). Thus, it may have overestimated John's ability to distinguish actual human voices from a synthesis. 5) Finally, the best reason (noted in the Special Edition) is that this odd behaviour is also a result of being damaged by the liquid nitrogen and being shattered. 6.17.1 Why didn't the T-1000 kill Sarah later? ---------------------------------------------- Because the T-800 came to her rescue after he broke his arm free. 6.18 If the T-1000 was destroyed when it fell into the molten steel, why wasn't it destroyed when the semi tow-truck blew up? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Molten steel is a *lot* hotter than a gas explosion; notice that the truck did not melt when it blew up. 6.19 Why didn't the Terminator "disappear" when John threw the CPU into the molten steel? ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The time travel of the Terminator movies is not the same as that of the _Back to the Future_ series. Although no one is sure what would happen if you created a paradox, it is highly unlikely (and goes against the laws of physics for our world) that matter would just disappear into thin air. Time-travel paradoxes are a lot more complicated than that. [See section 8 for more on time travel.] According to the novelization, Judgment Day is avoided; Sarah becomes a grandmother and John a Senator fighting the Skynet bill in Congress (see section 1.1.2). Also in the book, the T-800 jumps in the molten pit on its own -- as was called for in an early script draft. 6.20 Isn't the Terminator's arm being left behind in the huge gear going to lead to the creation of Skynet anyway? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ It was clear from Dyson that it was the CPU that spurred the technology for Skynet. In the book, Sarah and John took the parts left from the T-800 and threw them into the molten pit. 6.21 When the T-1000 is on top of the elevator in Pescadero State Hospital, why doesn't it just cut the cables? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Modern elevators have brakes that prevent them from free-falling to the bottom of the shaft; some shafts apparently also have 'buffers' at the bottom. 6.22 What about ? ------------------------------------------------ Several astute people have pointed out minor continuity discrepancies. These are not plot problems, they are simply byproducts of the complex endeavour of shooting a film. I leave it to Van Ling, Creative Technical Supervisor of Lightstorm Entertainment, and annotator of the T2 illustrated screenplay (see section 10.1 for more details), to have the final word. Arnold's face was NOT grafted via CG onto Peter Kent's body in the bike jump into the canal. You are simply looking at Peter Kent wearing Stan Winston facial prostheses to make him look more like Arnold. A previous post asked about the windshield continuity problem (the glass is popped out during the jump, then is back in until T-1000 knocks it out later). This is an instance of practicality taking precedent over continuity. Yes, the glass popped in the single take we did of the jump (an aborted practice take notwithstanding). However, Jim wanted the glass to remain intact for much of the scene, in order to a) help hide the stunt driver in most shots, and b) allow for clear closeups of Robert Patrick at the same time. This is not as mutually exclusive as you may think. Even Jim Cameron wasn't going to get to say "let's do this $$$$ gag again, and make make sure the glass doesn't pop this time!" There's a point where you have to decide whether to blow the bucks on a retake of a gag that hopefully should not yank you out of the film if the continuity is a little off, or to plow that money into other, more crucial parts of the movie, really finesse a cool CG shot, etc. I hope you'll agree we made the right decision. ;-) Van PS: I'm the first guy you here and see in the Cyberdyne lab intro scene, sitting at a terminal next to the neural net processor. 6.23 What is the make and model of the Terminator? -------------------------------------------------- Reese (in T1) and Arnold (in T2) both refer to the Terminator as a "Cyberdyne Systems Model 101". Reese adds "the 600 series had rubber skin. We spotted them easy. But these are new." Obviously there is more than one variation on the Model 101. In T2SE, after the chip-toggle scene, the Terminator reboots ·_ and the startup data is shown from his point of view. In the top left corner of the screen it says "Cyberdyne Systems Series 800 Model 101 Version 2.4". Presumably, the metal endoskeleton is Model 101; the flesh-covered units are Series 800. Again, Van Ling provides the definitive answer. Arnold is an 800-series terminator, Model 101. This means that the infamous endoskeleton covered in living tissue is a T-800. The fact that the aforementioned living tissue looks like Arnold makes it Model 101. Therefore, all 800-series Model 101s look like Arnold. An 800-series Model 102 would look like somebody else, but would be essentially the same underneath, since it's a T-800. Just thought I'd clear that up. Van Ling Lightstorm Entertainment 7.0 Trivia ========== All questions must be stated in the form of a question. 7.1 Who was originally cast as the Terminator? ---------------------------------------------- Lance Henriksen (ALIENS, ALIEN^3, Hard Target) was originally cast as the Terminator, with Arnold as the hero. Arnold read the script, and asked to play the Terminator instead. Henriksen was recast as the cop Vukovich. 7.2 How many lines did Arnold have in T1? ----------------------------------------- Arnold's voice is used in exactly 16 lines, with 17 sentences spoken. The Terminator has two other lines, one with the voice of a police officer overdubbed, and one with the voice of Sarah's mother overdubbed. There are also many lines with the voice of Sarah's mother, and we learn that the Terminator is actually saying them, but we don't see it onscreen. 7.3 What is Harlan Ellison's connection to the Terminator movies? ----------------------------------------------------------------- SF author Harlan Ellison filed a lawsuit against T1 director JC, claiming that Cameron plagiarized several of his short stories, namely "Soldier" and "Demon with a Glass Hand". The concept of 'Skynet' could also have been borrowed from an Ellison short story called "I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream". Newer prints of T1 acknowledge Ellison. 7.4 What is the 'crushing foot' motif? -------------------------------------- This refers to the recurring imagery of humanity being crushed by the machines. First, in the 2029 sequence of T1, there is a closeup of tank treads rolling over human skulls. Next, when the T-800 approaches the house of the first 'Sarah Connor', it crushes a small toy truck. Also, after the Terminator kills Sarah's friend, he walks over her Walkman headphones. In T2, the title sequence starts with a Terminator endoskeleton crushing a human skull. The imagery of the Hunter-Killer tank rolling over skulls reoccurs. The T-800 crushes one of the roses that falls out of the flower box when it removes the shotgun at the Galleria (may be a reference to the T2 tie-in video by Guns 'N' Roses). The T-1000 treads on the T-800's sunglasses at Pescadero State Hospital. 7.5 Is "judgment" spelled correctly? ------------------------------------ Both "judgement" and "judgment" are accepted spellings, however, "judgment" is increasingly preferred. 7.6 How did Linda Hamilton prepare for T2? ------------------------------------------ She underwent a rigorous weight-training/exercise program six days a week, and weapons training with a former Israeli commando. 7.7 Does Linda Hamilton have a twin sister who appeared in T2? -------------------------------------------------------------- Yes, she was in the scene at the end where the T-1000 took the form of John Connor's mother. Linda actually played the T-1000 version of herself and her sister played Sarah Connor coming up behind the T-1000. Linda's sister also appeared in the scene in which Sarah replaces the T-800's chip and sees herself in a mirror (this scene is restored in the Special Edition). NOTE: these scenes were not done with split screens. Linda's sister's name is Leslie Hamilton Gearren and she is a nurse in New Jersey. Linda Hamilton played Sarah on the playground during her dream sequence (in fact, she is holding her real-life son). (The guard in the mental institute also has a real-life twin brother, who actually played the T-1000 coming up behind him at the coffee machine. These twin brothers were also in _Good Morning Vietnam_ and _Gremlins2: The New Batch_.) 7.8 What hardware/software was used to produce some of the FX in T2? -------------------------------------------------------------------- The systems used were Silicon Graphics IRIS 4D/340VGX RISC-processor workstations. The software used was Alias Studio 3.0 and Pixar's Renderman from ILM. The computer graphics were used, among other things, for the morphing/liquid metal FX, for putting the pilot's reflection on the T- 1000 in the helicopter, and in the nuclear blast scene. 7.9 What machine code is displayed on the Terminator's visual display? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 6502 assembler, specifically Apple 2+ assembly, taken from _Nibble_ (QV), a computing magazine. Other code visible is written in COBOL. 7.10 What is the literal translation of "Schwarzenegger"? --------------------------------------------------------- According to Arnold on Late Night with David Letterman: "black plowman". 7.11 What does "Hasta la vista" mean? ------------------------------------- 'See you later.' Literal translation is "until the sight". 7.12 Did the movies win any Academy Awards? ------------------------------------------- T2 won four Oscars: Best Make-up: Stan Winston and Jeff Dawn Best Sound Effects Editing: Gary Rydstrom and Gloria S. Borders Best Sound: Tom Johnson, Gary Rydstrom, Gary Summers, and Lee Orloff Best Visual Effects: Dennis Muren, Stan Winston, Gene Warren Jr, and Robert Skotak T2 editors Conrad Buff IV, Mark Goldblatt, and Richard A. Harris were nominated in the Best Editing category. Adam Greenberg was nominated in the Best Cinematography category for T2. 7.13 How much money did T2 make? -------------------------------- T2 grossed over US$490 million worldwide. It recouped its total production costs in its first 12 days of release. In three weeks, it grossed US$123M -- its closest competitor (_Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves_ took six weeks to reach that mark). For 1991, T2's total US box office gross for 1991 was US$204.4M; in the UK it took in 18.1M pounds. 7.14 Is there a real Skynet? ---------------------------- Astonishingly, the answer to this question is a simple 'yes'! The following article was carried by Reuters on June 20, 1994: ** VSAT CUSTOMER -- AT&T said Allied Van Lines has agreed to become the first customer of its new [VSAT] satellite hub service. AT&T said under Allied's five-year, multimillion-dollar contract, Allied will connect its agents' local area networks to AT&T's SKYNET hub service for shipment registration, scheduling and dispatch and to process bills of lading. (Before anyone starts stocking up on plasma rifles and planning to be wearing 2 million sunblock on August 29, 1997, realize that this is clearly not a automated defense network, but rather a simple communications net. Or is it...?) 7.15 What is "Bentham Petroleum"? --------------------------------- The symbol of the gas station that John, Sarah, and the T-800 pull into in T2 is the symbol of Bentham Petroleum, the oil company from JC's _The Abyss_. 7.16 What sunglasses did the Terminator wear? --------------------------------------------- According to Van Ling, Arnold wore Gargoyles in the first film, and wore Oakleys in T2. 7.17 Miscellaneous trivia ------------------------- - T2 co-writer William Wisher portrayed the guy taking pictures of the T-800 after it smashes through the window at the Galleria. - The helicopter pilot whom the T-1000 tells to get out is played by Chuck Tamburro, T2's aerial coordinator. - Cyberdyne guard 'Moshier' (Mike Muscat) was also Edward Furlong's acting coach. 8.0 Time travel questions ========================= Naturally, any theory of time travel is just that: a theory. For the purposes of this FAQ, the best we can do is try to apply one or more of these theories, while still maintaining internal consistency with the info presented in the films. There are many theories of time travel in science fiction and comics. However, most discussions of time travel focus on two theories of 'real- world' physics: classic Newtonian and quantum mechanical physics. For a good introduction to the application of these theories to time travel, see the article, "The quantum physics of time travel" in the March, 1994 issue of _Scientific American_. The classical theory states that there is one existence, and thus a single timeline. According to this view, changing an event in the past could theoretically retroactively change history from the time traveler's POV. This theory is plagued by problems of "temporal paradoxes". For example, what happens if you go back in time and prevent your parents from meeting? (According to the movie _Back to the Future_, you will 'fade from existence'!) The quantum view is that time travel is possible along distortions in space-time called closed timelike curves; also, reality exists as a multiverse of infinite possibilities. Thus, if you travel back in time and prevent your parents from meeting, there's no paradox. Your parents still meet and conceive you in the timeline you came from (after all, you must have come from somewhere!). However, a 'version' of you will *not* be born in the timeline you traveled to. Broam Christopher Weaver writes: "The 'many-universes' interpretation of quantum mechanics solves a lot of time travel paradoxes. A time traveler can make _any_ change in the past he/she/it wants to without endangering their existence because they came from a _different_ universe whose timeline is untouched by their meddling. Therefore, there really is no paradox in the Terminator movies. The Terminators and Kyle Reese came from a universe where the war actually occurred, but by the end of T2 a universe had been created where John and Sarah Connor lived with no global thermonuclear war. The original timeline still exists, however, in a parallel universe." T2 implies that its world is of one existence and a single timeline. Certainly, it would seem to be futile to send someone back to change the past in a multi-universe existence -- unless one is very altruistic! Consider this: T2 implied that Judgment Day never occurred due to manipulation of the past. But it all depends which timeline one looks at: 1995 2029 -----|----------------|--(existence with nuclear war) (A) \_______________|__(alternate peaceful existence) (B) Assuming the existence of multiple parallel timelines, if a time traveler could change an event in 1995 (such as destroying the CPU chip), all that would result is another existence (B) branching off from 1995. Note that the nuclear war still happens in existence (A), even if an event in the past is changed! What can we conclude? Quantum physics *can* explain the events of T1/T2 well. However, it does not make for a good story. Although saving humanity in a *single* timeline out of an infinity is better than none at all, this situation would likely not have been accepted by the moviegoing public. Assuming Judgment Day does *not* occur (as per the 'lost ending' of T2), JC wanted to show that there is "no fate" but what we make of it. This philosophy is reinforced by the 'single-timeline' approach. So there you have it: good physics and a watered-down story, or a ream of paradoxes and a strong story. Anyone care to posit a hybrid? ;-) 8.1 How did the (liquid *metal*) T-1000 travel to the past? Didn't they destroy the time machine? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The T-800 was able to go through time because it was surrounded by living tissue. The T-1000 could imitate living tissue, but it is made up of alloy metals, so it is not technically a biological organism, but neither was the T-800. Some possibilities: 1) Maybe Skynet used a time machine with improved capabilities (apparently with the letter-boxed laserdisc for T1, you can see a type of bubble enclosed around Reese before he drops, so this may imply that the same type of time machine was used in T2). 2) Mimicking living tissue is sufficient. The mimetic polyalloy is capable of generating a 'living field' of some sort. 3) The time machine in T2 is in a separate existence from T1 (refer to section 8 on time travel). 4) The T-1000 was sent through wrapped-up in flesh. This is the most likely (but most gory) explanation. In _The Terminator: Tempest_ comic, an advanced plasma weapon is sent through time in the belly of a man. The same method may be extrapolated for the T-1000. Regarding the destruction of the time machine, Reese would have been gone before the machine was destroyed anyway. He wouldn't know for certain whether it was destroyed or not. 8.2 How can Skynet exist if the chip and arm were destroyed? ------------------------------------------------------------ According to the classical, single timeline/universe view, it is impossible -- unless Cyberdyne Systems develops Skynet technology *independently* of any help from the future. Assuming the existence of a multiverse of timelines, this situation can also be explained. In the universe in which we see the Terminator technology destroyed, Skynet will never exist. However, there must exist at least *one* timeline/universe in which Skynet technology is developed. This may occur due to: a) Cyberdyne independently creating the technology, or b) Terminator remains originating from yet *another* timeline are left behind. Thus, the movies must chronicle *two* different universes: one with the hellish future dominated by Skynet, the other is the one saved by Sarah and John. 8.3 If John gave a speech to Reese in 2029, who gave it to Sarah and conceived John in 1984, and then Sarah told it to John, then who *wrote* the bloody speech? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- According to classical physics, we have a classic paradox. No one wrote it, everybody just memorized it. Assuming a multiverse, on the other hand, we can posit that a future John Connor (whose mother encountered a Reese who perhaps forgot the speech) *did* write the speech, and gave it to Reese. Reese traveled back to 1984 in *another* universe, and gave it to Sarah (which we saw in T1). 8.4 What are some good related SF time-travel stories? ------------------------------------------------------ Larry Niven's short story entitled "All the myriad ways" (in a collection by the same name) explores the every-change-in-history-creates-an-alternate- universe idea. The story is based on the idea that there are an infinite number of these universes, branching off at every decision anyone ever makes. It's an interesting extension of just how irrelavant everything become in one of these alternate-universe-based view of things. In that same collection is another story, "On the theory and practice of time travel" which is a very entertaining look at the whole subject. The book is highly recommended based not only on its high entertainment value but on its thought-provoking look at time travel. Robert A. Heinlein's short story "All you zombies" (collected in _The unpleasant profession of Jonathon Hoag_) is widely considered to be *the* definitive time-travel story. 9.0 Will there be a _Terminator 3_ movie? ========================================= On _Secrets Revealed_, JC is cagey: "Well, T3...that's a *secret* of course. We can't talk about that [laughs]." (JC is obviously playing on the fact that the TV show is called "Secrets Revealed.") Arnold, on T2: "This movie does *not* indicate to me that there's an end to the story possibilities. According to what we know about the future, there were *hundreds* of Terminators built. This story could go on forever. I know Jim [JC] rules out a third film. But I don't" [from _Starlog Yearbook_, vol. 10] Note that by removing the ending of T2 showing Sarah and John in the future, JC makes it more ambiguous whether or not Skynet will be developed. I suppose we'll have to wait and see what the future brings ;-) Apparently, there will soon be a live action/3D movie/ride at Universal Studios Florida with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Edward Furlong called "T2- 3D". 10.0 Credits ============ Some people whose contributions are quoted directly are named in the body of this document.
